In the beginning of Radiography, Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen scientist won the Nobel prize and
how did he get to do this ? - Correct Answer
in 1896 while investigating phosphorescence in uranium salts, he accidentally discovered
radioactivity . as he was investigating the work of Mr rontgen , Becquerel wrapped a fluorescent
substance , potassium - Correct Answer Henri Becquerel 1852-1908
gamma radiography got its start in the united states in 1929 at a naval research laboratory. the
navy wanted a method to inspect think steel casting , but x ray available at the time were
limited to 3 in"
using radium it was possible to inspaect thhinknesse in the range of 10" in to12" in these
radiographs were achieved by a method called fishpoling - Correct Answer Early Gamma
Radiography
fishpoling required a radiographer to hold a weak radium source to a long rod for the time
length of the exposure, or to prop the fishpole through a rig to hold it steady. - Correct Answer
Fishpoling
